Gabriela Ivanova is a 13-year-old teenage singer who lives in Dublin. The young talent has had several successful musical projects with famous Bulgarian musicians. Her latest project has been recently released, showing the entire palette of her vocal capabilities, supplemented with arrangement by Krasimir Marchev. There are four voices in the song but actually all of them are Gabby's voice. The song is a new reading of the classic work "Kafal Sviri" by Bulgarian composer Petar Lyondev, created for choral performance.

Check out the video to "Kafal sviri" - Gabi's latest project:

The young singer has over 40 Bulgarian and international singing awards and is one of Bulgaria's talented children, supported by the Dimitar Berbatov Foundation. She is known to the Bulgarian audience with her song "S men i teb" that she performs together with Bulgarian hip-hop and R'n'B singer, producer and host VenZy. Last year, at the International Charity Bazaar in Dublin, Gabriela Ivanova made an audience of more than 2,000 people dance by singing two Bulgarian folk songs with great emotion.

"Although Gabriela lives and studies in Dublin, she does not forget her roots and the magic and charm in Bulgarian folklore and the fact it does not get old, but can always be relevant to the future generations, depending on how it is presented," says her mother Liliana Dancheva.
